MASSACHUSETTS, United States, — The American well-known linguistic and political theorist Noam Chomsky has called upon the Turkish government to respond to the Kurdish hunger strikers.
In the bellow footage Professor Chomsky makes the following appeal:
I would like to appeal to the Turkish government, both in terms of just plain humanity and also very significant reasons of political consequence and human rights, to respond to the desperate hunger strike, which is now reaching extremely dangerous conditions, by attending to the demands that have been put forth, which I think are just reasonable and to alleviate the crisis that is now arising and will get much worse if the Turkish government does not respond in a humane and in my view civilized way.”
